This biodegradable URN contains a tree seed that gets its nutrients from your ashes. You can become a tree when you die! i suppose this doesn't really belong on my "life" board. /: lol.

This biodegradable urn contains a tree seed that gets its nutrients from your ashes. Essentially, you can become a tree when you die. I'm normally not big on this sort of thing, but this is kinda neat!

Interesting...wonder what the tree success rate is? Would be a bummer to think you're going to turn into a tree and have a drought or harsh winter the year you die leave you just in a random dirt pile for eternity.

{blank stare}....Well, I *do* want to be cremated. Kind of awesome, actually. Become a tree when you die. You plant the biodegradable urn which contains a tree seed that gets its nutrients from your ashes.

Guest Cottage: I have a dream tucked away where several of these little cottages are scattered on a small expanse of land...a little village of guest houses occupied by visitors always, new friends, old friends, strangers...etc.

These activities are fun ways for kids to explore and create with science experiments. The website has links on how to make ice tunnels, invisible ink, a storm in a cup, crystal egg geodes, glow water, baking soda volcanoes, and mad scientist potion with dry ice. Plus it explains some of the science concepts behind the fun!

In Francis Giacobetti’s image, Stripes, The use of positive and negative space is very present. The positive being the black shadows and lines and the white of the photo to be the negative, the harshness of the light and the lines is what I first saw when looking at the image, my eye being drawn more to the shadows of the photo.As I continued to observe I was more drawn into the way the subject’s body is positioned and how it abstracts the lines and shadows causing you to focus more on her body.

I came across these amazing photos of the French photographer from Marseille Francis Giacobetti. He certainly knows how to use shadows as his medium to create an incredible work. Zebra by Francis Giacobetti, Zebra, Francis Giacobetti, Photo, Exhibition, Art

Zebra Cake Recipe from The Whimsical Cupcake

Animal prints is something I never really got behind. It was something that I only saw on 75 year old blue-haired ladies that are way cooler than me or on kids who looked like walking cheetahs. Not really the look I go for. Lately everywhere I look, there’s something with some form of animal print on it and I find myself liking it. Ok, not EVERYTHING but a few pieces here and there. I can probably attest some of this animal print tolerance to my sister, she’s so stylish sometimes that it kills me. I’m not sure what kind of demographic I reach out there in internet land, animal print lovers or haters, but I’m sure your love or hatred won’t apply to this cake. It’s a zebra striped cake. I said it. Zebra striped cake. And no matter WHO’s plate it sits on, it will ALWAYS be in style. This is a simple cake needs no pillowy frostings, no fancy ganaches, and no whippy creams. A light and beautiful dusting of powdered sugar, a plate and a fork… and you’re in business! Zebra Cake Adapted from King Arthur Flour Yields one 9″ or 8″ round cake Ingredients: 1 cup granulated sugar 4 large eggs 1 cup milk (whole, 2% or 1%) 1 cup vegetable oil 1 teaspoon vanilla 2 cups King Arthur Unbleached All-Purp
